Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a negative cadmium plate for an alkaline storage battery, the utilization rate of the negative active material of which is enhanced, by immersing a pasted negative plate in a nickel salt solution, being followed by subjecting the plate to formation treatment. CONSTITUTION:A paste prepared by kneading cadmium oxide powder used as an active material with both a conductive agent and a binding agent solution, is applied to a core member before being dried. The thus obtained negative plate is immersed in a solution of a nickel salt such as nickel amidosulfonate, and dried. After that, the dried negative plate is subjected to formation in an aqueous alkaline solution to produce nickel hydroxide. Here, the amount of the nickel salt is adjusted so that the ratio by weight of cadmium oxide to nickel hydroxide after the formation is 100 to about 0.2-10. By the means mentioned above, nickel hydroxide can be homogeneously added to the entire plate, and the utilization rate of the negative active material is enhanced.

In recent years, for example, in sealed alkaline storage batteries, the capacity of nickel positive electrode plates has been increasing, and at the same time, the volume occupied by the positive electrode plates in the battery has increased by 2.2. Therefore, as the capacity of the positive electrode plate increases, the amount of negative electrode active material must also be increased, but it is difficult to increase the amount of negative electrode active material due to the limitation of battery internal volume.

Therefore, it is important to improve the utilization rate of the negative electrode active material itself.

Conventionally, various metal powders and metal oxides have been added for the purpose of improving the utilization rate of paste-type cadmium negative electrode plates, as described in JP-A-51-138831. It plays a major role, and the current situation is that it cannot cope with the recent increase in positive electrode capacity due to the increase in volume due to addition.

1. As described in JP-A No. 160-160-48, a porous substrate made of nickel or the like is impregnated with a solution of an active material such as cadmium nitrate, and then immersed in an alkaline solution, washed with water, and dried to remove the active material. Some filling methods include nickel salts added to the active material solution, but although this has an effect on cycle life, it does not have an effect on the initial plate utilization rate.

That is, the addition of nickel hydroxide to the negative electrode has the effect of assisting the electrochemical conversion between the negative electrode active material, metal cadmium, and cadmium hydroxide during charging and discharging cycles. However, when a porous substrate is impregnated with a mixture of cadmium salt and nickel salt and then converted into hydroxide using an alkaline solution, nickel hydroxide is incorporated into the cadmium hydroxide particles. The metal cadmium produced during chemical formation is coagulated under pressure into a metal lump during press working, and the effects of nickel hydroxide gradually appear as the dissolution-precipitation reaction is repeated through charging and discharging cycles. In addition, in the case of the baking candy method, since the active material is filled into the metal pores, the metal cadmium is less likely to be turned into metal lumps by pressing, but cadmium hydroxide and nickel hydroxide are precipitated from a mixed aqueous solution of cadmium salt and nickel salt. After drying and pulverizing, if the paste is processed into a negative electrode plate, metal agglomeration will be promoted and the effect of nickel addition will not be achieved. It has also been reported that adding nickel oxide is effective in suppressing high-temperature storage performance, so-called high-temperature self-discharge. Localization of nickel cannot be avoided and the surrounding area is covered with cadmium active material, so there is little effect on improving the utilization rate of the negative electrode plate from the initial stage. Furthermore, the particle size of nickel hydroxide also requires precise control.
